Where is the drain plug located
The 2011 Kia Sorento typically requires SP-IV ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid). It's important to use the specified fluid to ensure proper performance and longevity of the transmission. Always check the owner's manual or consult a dealer for the most accurate and specific recommendations for your vehicle.

To change the transmission fluid on a 2011 Kia Sorento, start by warming up the engine to thin the fluid, then turn it off and allow it to cool slightly. Locate the transmission fluid pan, remove the drain plug or pan bolts, and let the old fluid drain into a container. Replace the filter if applicable, then reinstall the pan and fill the transmission with new fluid through the dipstick tube, checking the level as you go. Always refer to the owner's manual for the correct type and amount of fluid.
Automatic transmissions today are very expensive to repair or replace. Each manufacturer has their own specificially formulated fluid for their transmission. Using any fluid that is not compatible may cause serious problems down the road. For that reason I highly recommend you use nothing but Toyota T-IV ATF and no substitute.
For a 2011 Kia Soul, the recommended automatic transmission fluid (ATF) is Kia/Mobis SP-IV or an equivalent fluid that meets the same specifications. It's important to avoid using conventional ATF, as it may not provide the necessary performance and protection for the transmission. Always consult the owner's manual for specific fluid recommendations and capacities.
